Silk Way West in yak breeding flight

Central Asia region cargo carrier Silk Way West Airlines has transported 116 yaks from Kyrgyzstan to Azerbaijan to bolster the breeding program in Kalbajar.

The yaks, vital to the agricultural biodiversity of Azerbaijan, travelled over 2,000 kilometres aboard a B747-400F from Bishkek Manas International Airport to Ganja Airport. 

The yaks were accommodated in custom-designed crates that provided protection from injury and stress. The aircraft was equipped with advanced ventilation and temperature control systems to maintain an optimal environment throughout the journey.
 
The yaks are not the only live animal shipments for the carrier.

The company’s portfolio includes the transportation of various species including alpacas, kangaroos, dogs, horses and European bison.
